His previous book, Making Democracy Work, was praised by the Economist as "a great work of social science, worthy to rank alongside de Tocqueville, Pareto and Weber."

Why do some democratic governments succeed and others fail? In a book that has received attention from policymakers and civic activists in America and around the world, Robert Putnam and his collaborators offer empirical evidence for the importance of "civic community" in developing successful institutions. Their focus is on a unique experiment begun in 1970 when Italy created new governments for each of its regions. After spending two decades analyzing the efficacy of these governments in such fields as agriculture, housing, and health services, they reveal patterns of associationism, trust, and cooperation that facilitate good governance and economic prosperity.

读后感
帕特南作为有名的政治学家，对于“公民社会”“公民参与”这样的话题是情有独钟的。他的《独自打保龄球》就描绘出美国人对于他们一向热衷的保龄球这样的社团活动的热情似乎正在下降了。人与人横向关系的疏远一定程度上动摇了稳固的社会资本，对于以此为基石的美国共和民主政治...
评分初看帕特南教授所著《使民主运转起来：现代意大利的公民传统》的书名便觉得惊讶，一是因为“民主”一词在中国拥有与西方不同的意义，我不知读一本西方学者所著关于“民主”的书是否有助于了解中国政治或是国际关系；惊讶原因之二是与“民主”相对应的不是美国或者英国，而是地...

# 如果不是对civic tradition感兴趣，这本书可以花三个小时就读完。经验材料的编排以当时的标准来看算精细，但是给人感觉是硬套上去的，讲历史渊源没写出活泼劲儿来。这本书还是比较少强调civic tradition对于发展和民主起作用的conditionality，不过civic tradition的几个要点，平等、包容、替别人考虑等等，确实就是民主得以运转的关键。现代社会不一定意味着community到society，作者试图说明在现代社会里可以建立基于自由平等关系的community。我很喜欢这个理想，今后可以自称communitarian liberals，哈哈。
评分因研究civic society细细读了两天。研究political culture的经典范本，讨论civic traditions对institutional performance的作用，理论格局和实证的对接做的很好，但似乎并没有排除economic development对civic associations的影响，最后落回到communitarianism时也不能论证liberalism就不会带来civic bonds.
评分看着都这么累 真研究起来得有多烦
评分methodological innovation; explanatory variable, civic community; subnational variation; historical legacy; yet, not necessarily make democracy work, but make institutions work, create a responsive and effective institution.
评分great thoughts. However, Putnam didn't rule out the possibility that the prevalence of civic associations in Northern Italy is not as the result of the region's better economic conditions.
